China and Australia: the whale and the tadpole : Comments

By Peter West, published 11/8/2016

Chinese social media begged 'Sun, don't cry', went mad over Horton's comments and bombarded his social media accounts with demands for an apology.

Xi Jinping's peace doctrine in the South China Sea would be very different from PM Turnbull's, just in case of misinterpretation. Even Hitler spoke of peace in Europe when Germany achieved ascendancy.

Hi Michi,

Yes, until Nazi Germany invaded Poland. And again, when it invaded the Soviet Union. And overthrew the Italian occupation of Albania. And Greece. And later, Horthy's Hungary. And Rumania and Bulgaria, all former allies. There's no love lost between fascists.

So, you've learnt nothing from the lessons of Japanese imperialism and aggression ? Even after seventy years ? God help us.

But thanks for being honest: it gives Australians a fair idea of how people in our region may think.

Can we rank the contestants in the following order.
gold : Turnbull.
silver: China ( although it is bulldozing an east Tibetan Buddhist monastery as we speak)
bronze: US Monroe
4th : Japan
5th: Hitler.
China was on opium by British Global Invasions and Field Races.

Hi Joe

Unfortunately Michi's fascism is not just due to him living through Japan's fascist stage. Japan's new, female, Defense Minister, Tomomi Inada also appears rightwing to fascist.

Japan's Defense Minister denies Japan's Nanking Massacre and wider invasion of China. She believes Japanese teachers should not teach the truth about Japanese aggression in schools.

Japan's Defense Minister also insists The International Military Tribunal for the Far East after World War II, was against the principles of the modern law and was only a MacArthur policy construct.

see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomomi_Inada#Political_beliefs_and_positions

It looks like Australia rightly escaped becoming Abbott's submarine ally of Japan, because Australia would have had to move in step with Japan's new rightwing direction.

the right-wing RPCR became the largest party in New Caledonia and regained first place in the South Province. Fascist French submarines will patrol the centre-right east Australian Sea with an alliance against Japan against China against US-Vietnam comrades.
